Dhaka, Bangladesh: Following the deaths of over 105 individuals during violent protests in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh, the government has imposed a nationwide curfew.

Currently, students in Bangladesh are demanding the abolition of job quotas for the families of those who participated in the 1971 War of Independence.

During Friday’s demonstrations, the Narsingdi Jail was also stormed, leading to the escape of hundreds of prisoners. Subsequently, the Prime Minister’s office announced the imposition of a curfew across the country.

Government Press Secretary Naeem Islam stated that the military has been called in to restore peace.

It should be noted that over 105 people have been killed in the violent protests in Bangladesh so far. However, due to the disruption of communication systems in some parts of the country, it is difficult to accurately estimate the death toll. Reports indicate that mobile internet and telephone services have also been affected.

In the wake of these protests, train services have been suspended, and images from Dhaka show a heavy police presence attempting to control the situation. Educational institutions in Bangladesh will remain closed until further notice.
